Peep her future Delta t-shirt courtesy of my sister Chaz!
I knew she'd reach this milestone at some point, did it have to come so soon?

My baby lost her first tooth!
I'm happy yet a bit sad all at the same time. My youngest daughter Mimi is growing up so fast! She lost her first tooth today :-(. Here she is smiling with her tooth in a ziploc ready for the tooth fairy.

What's in my fridge/freezer/pantry?
People ask me often, "what do you eat?" I thought it would be fun to open up my fridge/pantry to give a peek at what's inside. I enjoy eating and I have a very diverse pallet. I'm not afraid to try new foods! I have also learned to enjoy cooking in the process of my weight loss journey!
Freezer- fish, ground turkey, frozen veggies, lean pork, chicken breasts, fruit bars...etc
Top of fridge- kids sugary cereal, my cheerios, ww snack cakes, fitness water packets, snack size chips
Fridge- fresh fruits & veggies, bread, lunch meats, juice, water, skim milk, cottage cheese, light sour cream, corn tortillas, olives...etc
Pantry- canned beans, tomatoes, soups; applesauce, brown rice, rice vinegar, V8, Capri Suns, whole grain/wheat pasta, peanut butter, etc...
I've got other cabinets with staple items and seasonings, but I didn't want to bore you with the details :-). Typically you're not going to find junk food in my home but I do afford myself and my girls treats every so often! What's in your fridge?

Maintaining a 110 lb (and counting) weight loss is harder than starting the journey!
When I jumped head first into my journey, I wasn't thinking too much about the after. When I say after I'm talking about after reaching my goal. When I started this, I ate, slept and breathed reaching my goal. Well I reached my goal in January, now what?
Now I'm maintaining AND working towards losing another 15 pounds. I heard it from many, keeping off the weight is harder than losing it...so very true! After a substantial loss, I don't ever want to go back. My body isn't perfect but it's a long way from where it used to be.
Looking in the mirror is a constant reminder of how much I've accomplished. From this...
To this...
My new bikini!
A huge change but I want more change! I have to keep telling myself that my old self no longer exists. The "big girl" that used to live here has moved, she's gone! Maintaining is now a part of my daily life.
I encourage those striving to reach that goal to seriously think about after. If you're working at changing your lifestyle, taking on healthy habits, after will eventually become your reality. What will you do once you reach after? Think about it!

Random ish' 4-1-11
1. Do people in Houston recycle? Why do I have to bring my recycle items to the bins at the park next door to my house (by the way my southern sweetie thinks I'm crazy for doing this)? Redamdiculous!
2. Scrubs are comfy but I miss wearing my cute clothes to work.
3. Ro got me hooked on the Naked brand smoothies...smdh!
4. I need a side hustle asap!
5. I made a sea salt body scrub the other day that smells just like chocolate chip cookie dough! Guess what?? I've stopped baking and eating those damn Tollhouse cookies every single day!
6. As if I haven't said it enough, I really adore my boyfriend! There's nothing like being in love with your best friend!
7. Julianni & Mimi light up my life :-)
8. I need to do a favorite things list.
9. It feels good to say "NO" to folks sometimes!
10. I'm making lumpia this weekend..uummm uummm good!

Weigh day! Fools day! Friday!
April 1st already! Last month I skipped my monthly weigh in post because I took a much needed break. Well this morning I stepped on the scale and this is what it read...
Yes ma'am! I'm back and in a big way! Salads and sweat sessions do a body good! Now it's time to bring strength training back! Next week I'm all over it!
Post workout this morning
Stats look like this...
Bust: 33.25
Waist: 28.5
Hips: 40.5
Thighs: both @ 23
My goal for this month is to lose five pounds, drop another inch from my waist and thighs. I also would like to plan my menu for two weeks at a time.
Happy Friday!
